Leaders like Washington, Lincoln, and the Roosevelts have led us through some of the most difficult times in our nation, while others have made mistakes which will haunt our nation forever. What better way to honor our previous presidents then through acrostic poems?

Not the

Greatest president?

Take it back ...

Not?

No one stopped him from being assassinated.

This election."

All anyone remembers is that he was too

Fat

To get out of the bathtub.

11. Franklin D. Roosevelt

Alright taste in glasses,

Nice job stopping Communism, not.

Just

Forget about the

Konspiracies, okay?

14. Lyndon B. Johnson

Little loud, sometimes,

But

Just as good as the rest.

Always farming those peanuts

Right down in Georgia.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
